The Vegas Golden Knights will play the third game of their four-game road trip this afternoon against the Buffalo Sabres.

The Golden Knights have started the Eastern Conference road trip going 1-0-1, most recently beating the Columbus Blue Jackets. During the road trip, Jack Eichel set the new franchise record for points in a season and starting goaltender Adin Hill signed a six-year contract extension. 

The three points they’ve picked up have also given them a five-point lead on the Edmonton Oilers and closed the gap to the Dallas Stars for second place in the Western Conference. 

The Sabres are once again going through a difficult campaign. Hope and optimism were high heading into the season, expecting breakthroughs from multiple young Sabres players, but nothing came to fruition, they sit in 30th place in the NHL and traded away 24-year-old centerman Dylan Cozens to a division rival. 

Playing against struggling teams can often lower the intensity, and this is why these games can be referred to as “trap games,” but the Golden Knights need every point they can conjure at the moment. Focus and execution will likely be what HC Bruce Cassidy preaches to his players.

Puck drop is at 9:30 AM PST at the KeyBank Center.
